But Minister for the Environment and Sustainable Development Simon Corbell says proposals to redevelop the site have been the subject of extended and detailed public consultation and Legislative Assembly scrutiny, and in response to concerns about the scale of the development,  there will be three fewer units than originally proposed.

“My decision to approve this development ensures that all of the relevant conditions recommended by the Standing Committee are conditions of the approval,” Mr Corbell says.

Brumbies management say they do not have a starting date for construction.
